    Clean open trench.

    BOB THE PLUMBER was a blessing to my family when our sewer surrendered to its awful fate. BOB diagnosed our problem and went to work that very day. A massive job that required a trench dug right through our living-room, the front bedroom, and out to link with the city system. BOB's crew worked with a furry while maintaining a happy and professional demeanor. Everything in its place. Their work is pristine and the workplace was left clean after every day's work- so we could live in our home during the night, saving us the expense of a motel. BOB got the job done in an amazing eight days, with a keen attention to details. They covered our furniture before they began and showed the utmost care with our personal possessions. What struck me most about BOB THE PLUMBER was their great work-ethic, their good humor, and their impeccable honesty. In a very difficult time in the life of my little home, BOB's "Ryan and Brooke" gave us the confidence to go forward into a dark place, the satisfaction of seeing their rapid progress, and the pride they take in the quality of the work. I say they well deserve my praise and my hearty recommendation. "BOB THE PLUMBER -NOBODY'S BETTER!" Chris Ernest Nelson (Poet-Painter-Retired Teacher) Chula Vista, CA

    Call Bob the plumber, best experience dealing with a plumbing issue. He was patient, knowledgeable, and made sure the job was done right (quick service was the cherry on top). I appreciate the time he took to explain what needed to be done.

    No response after contacting for an estimate so I have no idea about quality or value.

    Hi how much for your hydrojet services ? also i have cast iron pipes still the house was built in the 40s is it safe to hydrojet?

    Hi Richard. Hydrojetting costs vary. We would need to see the condition of the pipes to ensure pricing and safety. We do offer visits to your home to assess in person.

    How do you get a pen out of a tolite its stuck?

    Use an auger

    Plumbing 101 came to the rescue! After our third pinhole leak in our copper pipes in about two…read moreyears, I discussed with Nathan the prospect of replacing all our piping. He didn't pressure me at all but recommended that I do it now because if I didn't, they would likely be back again soon to repair another leak. He gave me a good price and didn't charge extra for the original reason they came to my house, a leak in the shower pipe. His team showed up at 7 am and completed the entire house by about 6 pm. They replaced all the copper pipes with PEX piping, replaced all the shower/bathtub valves with new posi-temp valves, new handles and escutcheons, new pressure and shut off valves, new angle stops, and they replaced the washer/dryer and refrigerator cut out boxes. Instead of installing the pipes the easier way, through the attic, they routed them in a more efficient way which made them less obtrusive in the garage and supplied hot water much quicker to the faucets. They wrapped all the exposed pipes in the garage with insulation. They worked with me to minimize necessary cuts in the dry wall and stucco. His team repaired and retextured all their cuts, but paint matching and touchup was left to me. They even retextured my whole 1/2 bath that was terribly textured by me several years ago. Nathan's team was very professional and respectful of any of our concerns; they asked me to do two walk-throughs when they were done. First, to check the plumbing, and then to check the drywall repairs. It's a good thing they came because Nathan found a fourth leak in the ceiling while doing demo. Who knows how long it might have leaked before we became aware of it. I highly recommend Plumbing 101.

    "Buy a home" they said. "It's better than paying rent" they said. While there are joys in…read morehomeownership, there are also nights where everything seems to go to poo. Like in our case where it was backing up in our showers, tubs and toilets. Well nothing says "Sleep well" like a plumbing emergency at 10pm on a Sunday. We did our "We can fix it with a little YouTube" try only to realize we couldn't find our clean out that didn't exist. In a "what about our morning poo?!" frenzy, we called one of those well-known corporate places and they had someone out at 9am the next day. Now we got great customer service, but we also got a ridiculous price tag for what turned out to be a need for a complete new pipe system (thank you 1950s cast iron). The other place was outrageous enough in pricing that we were willing to swallow a few Imodium or just get out the kitty litter to get some other quotes. Enter our longtime landscaper to the rescue! He told us about these guys and they were on it for almost 1/2 the price, fantastic customer service, knowledgeable and friendly employees and hardworking! We couldn't be happier with everything they've done and the way they treated us (two women where one used to be a building inspector ) with respect. They truly went above and beyond and we already recommend them to a neighbor with the job literally just finishing today. Nathan, Tito and Brian, may the rest of the year show you as much respect as you showed us.
